Dave: To assert, as you did, that Mary was "born without original sin" denies the truth of Scripture-" ALL have sinned, and come short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23), and makes Mary a GOD, not in need of the blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ for sinners! It denies Scripture, and makes a mockery of the price Christ paid for the sins of ALL humanity, INCLUDING MARY. Those who 'exalt' Mary to this position of worship and honor are worshipping a FALSE GOD, and will come under the judgment of God! ONLY CHRIST was (and is) sinless! God, in His mercy, sent His Son to identify and atone for the sins of the world thru the blood of His precious Son.... even to the point of 'melding' with sinful human flesh in the womb of a chosen Jewish maiden

The Malicious Mangling of the Virgin Mary

A Christian can be crushed gazing at the picture of Mary standing at the foot of the cross, watching her beloved son suffocate and die. But in that vision, she stands there for hours, patiently enduring her suffering. For two millennia, she has been a role model for Christians, a woman who practiced obedience in the most difficult of human circumstances, with fervent hope for what this sacrifice will offer all mankind as it struggles with sin.

This is why it seems so hard to reflect that vision of patience when black-hearted "artists" practice character assassination on the Blessed Virgin...
